Chapter 4124: Chapter 4112: The Operation Begins
After receiving Lin Yi’s order, Xiao Bing left.
Liang Xianghe’s gaze became much more kindly.
"We’re about to lift the fog of this world. Whether for you or the Central Guards Brigade, it’s a huge challenge. Be mentally prepared."
"I’ve been ready for a long time. I also want to know who those people stirring up trouble in the shadows are."
"Be bold, this time we’ll team up and play something big."
Lin Yi’s lips curled up, nodding with a smile.
"Yesterday, your dad sent something back. I had it delivered to the backyard. Go take a look when you have time; it was discovered in the abandoned area."
"Got it."
Liang Xianghe stood up, and Lin Yi went to help him.
"I’m going to have a meeting with Liu Hong. Go handle your own matters."
"Alright."
Lin Yi supported Liang Xianghe to the meeting room.
Standing at the door, Liang Xianghe looked at Lin Yi.
"Child, you’ve worked hard."
"This is my duty and mission."
"Go on."
Lin Yi left and went to the research institute in the backyard to find Chen Zhiyi.
"I heard from the old man that my dad sent something back, discovered in the abandoned area. Have you figured out what it is?"
"We’ve basically figured it out," Chen Zhiyi said:
"Do you remember you guys found two special pieces of metal in a Bronze Tomb? We speculated that putting the two metals together would create a special magnetic field that could achieve something like eternal life to some extent?"
"Could the stone that was sent be the same as those two pieces?"
"It’s the same substance, but the magnetic field is stronger," Chen Zhiyi said:
"The most interesting part is, do you know where they found this thing?"
"In the abandoned area, the old man told me about that."
"The abandoned area is vast, so saying it like that isn’t accurate," Chen Zhiyi said:
"They found it on an ape-like creature, reportedly standing two meters tall with great strength. I heard that Song Jinmin got injured dealing with it, and finally, your dad and Moon had to step in to subdue it, which was reportedly quite an effort."
"Ape-like creature? Song Jinmin couldn’t defeat it?"
The news of Song Jinmin’s failure shocked Lin Yi more than discovering the ape-like creature.
"That’s quite normal, considering that’s the abandoned area. Over the years, only Poker has dared to venture deep in."
"Do you think there’s a necessary connection between the two?"
"There’s a possibility, and a very high one," Chen Zhiyi said:
"The peculiar metal can produce a magnetic field that keeps the cells within a biological organism active for an extended period, essentially achieving so-called eternal life. These things the ape-like creatures wear invisibly extend their lifespan and provide a solid foundation and assurance for their evolution and reproduction. I think that’s why, for many years, no one has dared to venture into the abandoned area."
"If you look at it that way, this discovery might indeed be significant."
Chen Zhiyi nodded, "It’s given us another research direction."
"I’ll leave this matter to you. I have something else to discuss with you."
Lin Yi looked around and, seeing no one was paying attention, said:
"Our previous arrangement can proceed as planned. Prepare and wait for my notification."
"Okay."
After talking with Chen Zhiyi, team one gathered and together drove to the airport, boarding his private jet.
"Lin Bro, all the plane’s signals are turned off. No one can track our flight now," Xiao Bing said.
"Let’s set off."
...
News of Lin Yi’s departure from the Central Guard Brigade spread worldwide within a few hours.
In an abandoned factory in Beihe Province, Chen Wending walked in and approached Kidd.
"You should have heard about Lin Yi leaving the Central Guard Brigade."
Kidd nodded in response.
"First the Yanlong Team, and then team one from the Central Guard Brigade; they might have discovered something. Otherwise, it’s unlikely they would gather on the island at this time."
"Don’t be so rash. This might be Lin Yi’s deliberate arrangement; we can’t fall for it easily."
Kidd rubbed his temples, already getting a headache from Lin Yi’s actions.
He was also aware of some internal intel about the Central Guards Brigade.
They had recently accelerated the decoding work on the Sheepskin Scroll, frequently held internal meetings, and then Yanlong Team landed on the island; now team one went as well.
Most importantly, team one only set off after Liang Xianghe went to the Central Guard Brigade, which signifies something to a certain extent.
"Apart from this, there’s new intel. Poker’s people have gone to meet up with the Yanlong Team."
Kidd had heard this news too, which was why he was indecisive.
The Central Guard Brigade’s movements were significant, and he believed it might be because they had deciphered the content on the Sheepskin Scroll and were provided with a precise location.
The Central Guard Brigade people wanted to grab the resources first by landing on the island.
But precisely because the commotion was so big, along with the lessons from the past, Kidd was a bit cautious and hesitant, not daring to make any substantial moves against the Central Guard Brigade.
"I still don’t recommend acting rashly," Kidd said:
"Let’s wait a bit longer; let others take the lead this time, and we’ll find a way to harvest from behind. That’s the most perfect solution."
"The people from Kaijie Group are a bunch of cowards. They’ve taken no substantive actions to this day. You and I both know Mammon’s strength; if they spring into action, taking the intel from them won’t be easy and might cost us dearly."
"Don’t forget how these two missions failed. The organization is already dissatisfied with your actions this time; with past lessons, you should be more careful to avoid further issues."
As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do, and Kidd’s mindset had also adjusted.
Previously, they had been invincible, but this time, they repeatedly stumbled.
For him, for this operation, it’s better to have no mistakes than to seek merit. Should anything go wrong, the organization wouldn’t be easy to face.
"Are you scared?"
A trace of mockery appeared on Chen Wending’s face.
"After repeatedly losing to Lin Yi, I bet you no longer dare to oppose him."
"First, you need to understand these are Asia-Pacific matters and have nothing to do with me. As for why they sent me here, you are all well aware."
Kidd looked up at Chen Wending, his face expressionless.
"The fact is, you guys indeed have been quite disappointing. Zheng Dongyuan wouldn’t listen, and not only was the team wiped out, but he even died at Lin Yi’s hands. If I hadn’t saved you that day, you’d have shared the same fate, already meeting God, and wouldn’t be standing here talking to me."
